This is a journey around the World War One Battlefields of the Somme, in northern France, where the British and German armies engaged in conflicts of such enormity and horror. As idealism perished, the futile tragedy of ‘the lions led by donkeys’ emerged.
As one German officer wrote: ‘the whole history of the world cannot contain a more ghastly word than ‘Somme’’.
